There's plenty going on to get you in the mood for Monday.

1. Clash Of The Titans

We could probably fill this entire space by listing the 60 DJs appearing at COTT and that's not including the MCs. Rest assured the cream of the UK's d'n'b and hip hop scenes are present and correct.


2. International Rescue First Birthday

Ultra-rare UK appearance from Larry 'Mr Fingers' Heard. A true godfather of house, he discovered Robert Owens.


3. Ice Minus

Detroit's techno legend Richie Hawtin, renowned for epic sets, takes it to the next level with a ten-hour session, which will finish just in time for Carnival.


4. Universe

Esteemed NY DJ and producer Victor Calderone recreates the

Hammerstein Ballroom, the location of New York's post-Pride sell-out party, for a lowdown and dirty tribal house session.


5. Breakbeat Connection

The irregular breaks night returns with Arthur Baker on an old school electro tip, The Mixologists and PJ and Smiley of Shut Up And Dance going up against DJ Deekline.

  • Sun, Electric Ballroom, 9pm to 4am, £10. Tel: 020 7485 9006.
